POWER POLLUTION
The rapid advancement of industrial
technology—programmable logic controllers,
variable frequency drives, robotic material
handling, electronically commutated motor,
and controls & instrumentation—has increased
productivity and efficiency to new levels.
However, the proliferation of electronics,
computers and digital equipment is creating
pollution on the waveform. The processes of
rectifying AC to DC, and inverting DC to AC,
are responsible for generating 85% of power
pollution.
Pollution occurs everywhere on the
waveform.
Typical products work within a
specific voltage envelope or filter out
only specific frequencies leaving the
majority of the damaging pollution on
the waveform
EP’s patented waveform correction
technology tracks the waveform
removing pollution from every angle.
EP Waveform Correction Technology
delivers a waveform as sinusoidal as
possible to the equipment ensuring
optimal performance.

FILTRATION
Proper filtration is the only way to eliminate power pollution. EP’s patented
technology is the industry’s most advanced filtration system available.
EP is designed to respond to a voltage and a frequency it constantly tracks
the waveform filtering impurities as they enter. Facilities filter air, water and
fluids while ignoring the heart of production, electrical power!
HYBRID DESIGN
Even though filtration is essential to clean power, protection is still necessary.
Each company is responsible for protecting its equipment. The EP-2900, EP-
2800 and EP-2500 are capable of surviving over 1000 lightning category
surges (IEEE C3 surge category). The EP-2000 was tested with intermediate
high-energy surge (IEEE B3 surge category) over 4000 times with no
noticeable degradation in performance. EP is committed to using only the
highest quality components in the manufacturing process.

THE CLEAN POWER DIFFERENCE
A healthy electrical system is essential for equipment reliability and
return on investment.
EP waveform correction technology removes all unwanted power
pollution from the waveform and converts it into heat.
Clean power will significantly reduce wasted energy, by eliminating skin
effect, proximity effect and eddy currents.
Good power quality is impossible without removing AC power
disturbances. No other power quality products remove pollution from
the waveform. EP’s patented technology absorbs and dissipates this
pollution and is the first significant power quality advancement in more
than 30 years. All other protectors and filters simply divert transient
energy/noise to ground or neutral, which is the major cause of ground
loops.
Transient energy/noise circulates throughout the electrical system until
it finds a return path to its source. Even worse, is that the sensitive
electrical equipment that protectors and filters are supposed to protect
from power pollution is actually causing the pollution.
Most transients are represented as frequencies in the 25kHz range, but
can be as fast as 90kHz. These frequencies are a major contributor to
skin effect, proximity effect and eddy currents.

COMPLETE SYSTEM COVERAGE
Electronic devices such as computers, ballasts and industrial control circuits like VFD’s
generate approximately 85 percent of power disturbances. Most power quality equipment
is only designed to protect the main service from the 15 percent of power quality problems
that begin from external sources.
EP Waveform Correction Technology is designed to protect facilities from 100 percent
of power disturbances. The integrated modular design allows for easy placement where
filtration and protection are needed most.
The EP System is part of a total facility protection strategy encompassing everything from
the meter to point-of-equipment, including AC, DC, communications and security.
Whether it is main service, switchgear, motor controls, individual equipment or communication
lines, the EP System will increase equipment performance, reduce wasted energy and
protect expensive equipment.
EP’s patented waveform correction technology is the most advanced system in the industry.
It has the unique ability to remove frequency noise generated by nonlinear loads. EP is the
only product that tracks, absorbs, filters and dissipates without shunting to ground. The EP
System completely eliminates frequency noise power pollution, preventing ground loops
and common mode disruption.
EP Waveform Technology is manufactured in the United States by Environmental Potentials,
Inc. and has a distribution network spanning across the U.S. and seven other countries.
